Roller Derby Thoughts - 037 - Concussions & Career Threatening Injuries Power Through the 4th Whistle Roller Derby Podcast

    • Sports

Continuing the conversation from last week, we are talking about major injuries that limit your ability to do anything. We do a deep dive into concussions. And we are going to talk about your mindset if you decide to mount a comeback or step away. There are no wrong answers here, it is whatever is the right thing to do for you and your body, no judgement. I am going to give you stories of people going through some really major injuries and either coming out the other side pursuing something different or defying the odds and returning to the sport they love. (I go into the stories of Tommaso Ciampa and Daniel Bryan at length and included links to short videos below that tell their stories in a beautiful, emotional way if you'd like to learn more.)  It's going to get real and heavy at times, but I believe it's an important topic and will have value to someone.
